I’m happy to see that Irene Gallo is continuing her series of “Picturing…” posts, in which she uses her keen art director’s eye and delightfully eclectic taste to select a series of artworks on a particular theme (see my article on her post, “Picturing Autumn“).

This time around her topic is “Picturing Archers“, a surprisingly rich vein of images from illustrators and other artists both contemporary and historic.
